Enquiries

In most cases your solicitor will be able to reply to these without consulting with you first.
Sometimes though your solicitor will call you to get a few answers from you over the phone, or will send you an email or a letter and ask you to send your replies back.
It's all in plain English
These will only ever be simple questions about your home, asked in layman’s terms. (No technical solicitor jargon or anything like that).

Ourselves and both solicitors will make this part of the process as smooth as possible, and help make sure there are no hold-ups.
